I sometimes forget what an industrialized area I work in. Then I leave for lunch and have 3 trucks blocking the road on one side and a couple gas tankers trying to make it into the lot across the other side.
When I finally got out of the parking lot, there was a train blocking the road. Lucky for me, I (like to imagine I) have some pull in that area, so I called my dad.
Jen: "Dad, one of your trains is keeping me from lunch."
Dad: "It's not ours."
Jen: "It says (insert railroad name here) on the cars!"
Dad: "Did you see the engine?"
Jen: "No."
Dad: "How about the caboose?"
Jen: "Very funny, Dad."
